items$/$occupancies$?$

a$.$ Hospital Corridor

b$.$ Hospital Recovery Room

c$.$ Hospital Operating Theatre

d$.$ Driveway over a basement

A 'Normal' low rise building is being designed within open terrain by Alert, Nunavut. The ULS wind

loads need to be considered for the lateral force resisting system of the building. The building is

made up of six equally spaced rigid frames at $7\mathrm{.}2m$ o$/$c or five bays. The building is $36m14\mathrm{.}4m$

with a height of $5m.$ Refer to the sketches below.

a$.$ Calculate total unfactored ULS wind load $($in $kN)$ acting horizontally on the main structure, in

both the East$/$West and North$/$South directions. $($Hint: read the note for the end zone $\text{'}y\text{'}$

very carefully!$)$

b$.$ Precast concrete panels are being used to clad the building. Each panel is $3\mathrm{.}6m$ long $2\mathrm{.}5m$

tall. Determine the total ULS pressure $($in kPa $)$ acting on the upper concrete panel in the

middle frame on the north wall $($shown as "design me$!").$ Assume all significant openings

are non$-$uniform and will be closed during a storm.please
